Remix OS is on the way to be created and may be ready soon, one admin said

I feel like installing this Remix OS for a multimedia-like PC to view streaming and so on

However I believe Remix OS will be more resources-greedy than linux distros for example...

Anyways, which OS will you install, and if you want briefly explain why, thanks

You missed Android off your poll list. 

I will have three micro sd cards - one for Android, one for Linux and one for RemixOS Smile

I apologize lol well people can check "Other" and say Android Big Grin I think Windows 8 RT could be also compatible? (can't edit poll)

and why don't you make a simple bigger microSD with multiboot? hard to install maybe?

Multiboot is not setup yet, so it is easier (at first, at least), to use separate cards. 

Windows 8 RT seems unlikely. 

Thanks for making this poll Smile
It will be Android for me.. Smile
I already ordered 2 Pine64+ with 2 GB RAM.
One of them will I use for desktop pc with RemixOS or Ubuntu (maybe dualboot?) and the other one for a tablet with Android.
Some kind of Ubuntu flavour.
1) Remix OS - just to try it out
2) Linux - if it works well, then most likely this will be the primary OS.
Possible uses: online learning for my girl, Youtube (educational stuff), media center for movie nights and lastly to run game emulators for those nostalgic games!
3) Android - to experience Android on a TV. Most likely to use is as a Kindle reader / Google play store interface. (Maybe Remix OS will end up replacing this option, who knows?)

Will be using separate cards for each OS. Partly also to store their own apps / files and find them easily.
And the Pine should be permanently hooked to my TV I guess.  Big Grin
Missing Android in the list.  Cool
I intend to install Android. Smile
I will probably use this box for my media center with a PVR function.  Here is how I use my Remix Mini for my DVR.
